After eight years of searches and hard work Fede makes his debut in cinematography with TV series “Sebastian: The Slumberland Odyssey”.

“After eight years of late night nights and a financial sacrifice, I share with you my personal project: Sebastian: The Slumberland Odyssey. It’s the first of its kind, genre-busting series. It’s a mind bending live action/CGI episodic tale that blends Magical Realism with Science Fiction, in an unexplored new genre: SCI-FAN (Science-Fantasy)”.

“In a future ruled by Artificial Intelligence (AI), where disease is a choice and unauthorized dreaming is punishable by death, a young orphan risks his life by traveling into the Dreamworld (Slumberland) in order to save his inexplicably ill grandfather”.

Character Concepts

Main Characters

“The story of those two brothers and Sebastian’s journey through Slumberland was inspired by the relationship I have with my brother. When I was young I left my hometown and i came to California to develop my artistic skills. I used to visit my family often and in one of those trips, my father told me that I was going to have a baby brother. In order to make the most of the moments we spend together I created Slumberland. It’s a world in which anything could happen. It was a place that two brothers could visit together no matter how far away they were from each other.”

Production

We have to mention that the shooting for the pilot episode was made into an Olympic pool. In these conditions, the technical team and the artists have made an extra effort filming each scene.
